How can I use EAN/UPC in the GetProductSearchResults rather than using keywords to find a catalog match?

You can pass in product identifiers such as EAN, UPC etc in the QueryKeywords field in the GetProductSearchResults request.

Here is a sample request - response for a La Bamba DVD EAN - 5050582409475

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<GetProductSearchResultsRequest xmlns="urn:ebay:apis:eBLBaseComponents">
  <RequesterCredentials>
    <eBayAuthToken>TOKEN</eBayAuthToken>
  </RequesterCredentials>
  <ProductSearch>
    <QueryKeywords>5050582409475</QueryKeywords>
    <CharacteristicSetIDs>
      <ID>1172</ID>
    </CharacteristicSetIDs>
  </ProductSearch>
</GetProductSearchResultsRequest>
